Altmetric Badges address the challenge of sourcing and consolidating the vast online conversations surrounding research. People around the world discuss the latest developments in various fields through blogs, social media, public policy sites, and academic forums. Altmetric Badges enable organizations to demonstrate the full influence of their research at a glance, moving beyond traditional citations to reveal where published work is truly resonating. An Altmetric badge updates daily to showcase the engagement surrounding specific research. With a single click, users can access a collated record of all online attention for that item. The intuitive Altmetric donut colors indicate where these conversations are happening, while the attention score provides a weighted count of the research's overall reception. Clicking the donut directs users to a dedicated Altmetric details page, which comprehensively compiles all associated online attention. This tool empowers organizations to provide authors with transparent feedback on their online influence, quantifies readership through regularly updated scores, and offers a quick, easy way to showcase the value of publishing programs to internal and external stakeholders like funding institutions and editorial boards. Furthermore, Altmetric badges are highly customizable, allowing them to be modified to seamlessly integrate with the look and style of any website or platform.
